Čas izdelave je bil občutno krajši.
/ It was made in a significantly shorter time.

To, kako imenitno izgleda napolnjen s fotografijami navihanih najstnikov, mi boste pa morali verjeti na besedo :)
/ And it looks just great with photos of joyful teenagers. But you're going to have to take my word for it :)

Ko sem prvič videla, da lahko dve cikcakasti voščilnici na zelo fajn način združimo v albumček, sem si idejo shranila na to-bo-pa-še-sigurno-prišlo-na-vrsto seznamu.
/ When I first saw that two tri-shutter cards can be joined very nicely to make an album, I put the idea on the I-will-certainly-make-one-of-these list.

/ Considering that the album that I need to make should be in some other colours, and since June is my month, I've decided to offer this blue one to you. Without any additional embellishments, so that you can finish it entirely according to your liking. Just leave a comment (as always - under the post here or in my FB corner) telling me what you like the most about June.

/ p.s.: I don't intend to make any special instructions, because there are quite many available on the Internet and YouTube (just enter "tri-shutter" and "album" or "card" in the search box), but if you need some advice or information, please don't hesitate to ask.

Nisem komplicirala s papirji, uporabila sem svetlo vijolično osnovo in bele papirje z različnimi reliefnimi vzorčki.
/ I didn't want to make too much fuss about the papers; I used a light purple base and white embossed papers with different patterns.

Odprta
/ Opened

Notranja stran - na sredi prostor za voščilo
/ Inside - with some room for the note in the centre

Zunanja stran
/ Outside

Pa še pentljica na ročaju :)
/ And a little bow on the strap :)

Čisto čisto čisto zadovoljna nisem bila, a ni bilo časa za popravni izpit, domača žirija pa je rekla, da je ok.
Ampak sem dala zraven na izbiro še nekaj preprostejših. Me prav zanima naročnikov izbor...
/ I wasn't totally perfectly happy with it, but there was no time for another one, and the family jury said it was ok. But neverthless, I also gave a few simpler ones to choose from. I wonder which one will be picked...

Pa še na temnem. Povaljano z brusnim papirjem, potem pa je šla plahtica kar za poskusno "oblekico" za kovinsko škatlico.
In potem še ena iz pisanih "smeti".
/ And on the dark one. Rolled with sanding paper, and then I used the sheet as a test "wrapper" for a small metal box.
And then I made one more, using some colourful scraps.

Na začetku je bil katalog za oblačila in na naslovnici poletna ogrlica. In vprašanje: a bi ti znala kaj takega naredit? Samo brez črne...
/ In the beginning, there was a fashion catalogue and a summer necklace on the front page. And a question: could you make something like that? But without black...

Pa sem poskusila. Malo Donna-Kato-teorije, malo svojih izkušenj, malo improvizacije. In so nastali ti koščki:
/ So I tried. A bit of Donna-Kato-theory, a bit of my own experience, a bit of improvisation. And this is what I came up with:

Za občutek velikosti:
/ For the sense of size:

Samo še povrtat in nanizat jih je treba.
/ All they need is some drilling and stringing.

Iz ostankov pa... stara zgodba :)
/ And from the leftovers... an old story :)

Sploh se ne da povedat, kako jih je fajn opazovat, ko nastajajo - zdaj, ko je že postopek tako ustaljen, da mi več niti ni treba kaj dosti razmišljat.
/ I cannot even begin to tell you how great it is to watch them during the process - now that I don't even have to think much about what to do next.
